Not many people are running 19" rims on '05 to '09 Mustang GTs. Most have 18" rims and those that upgrade usually go to 20s.

But that is going to change with the 2010 model year Mustang GT, which comes with 18s standard and 19s optional. The very cool track pack option package includes cast-aluminum 19-inch wheels with 255/40ZR19 Pirelli P-Zero summer performance tires, 3.73:1 rear gears and a few other goodies.

The guys at my shop that did my suspension said if I did 20's, I would be rolling on rubber bands, I don't know. They think I am too low for 20's, (2.25 inch drop) so I have shopped every 19 inch rim I can find.
